Q: Awkward-est blooper since the overcaffeinated "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" kid?

A: You remember Too Much Coffee Lad, right? Well, this quick clip from TechTV nearly matches it in cringeworthiness...



...but neither comes anywhere close to the pain and awkwardness experienced by the Chinese stage model who recently dropped a ancient mirror worth a million bucks on national television.

Ever wish a single moment could've lasted forever? Yeah, her too...

T.A.M.S.Y. still loves you, unnamed Chinese stage model.

I don't think the clip's leaked to the Internet yet. Or maybe I'm just afraid to check. [story via Table of Malcontents; TechTV blooper via commenter on Digg]

Q: Correction of the year, 2007?

A: I recently discovered the excellent blog Regret the Error, which compiles the most notable, entertaining and/or embarrassing corrections from international media.

It's become an annual tradition at RtE to compile the best of the best errors and corrections at the end of the year. Granted, it's only January, but this gaffe from the Washington Post should probably be considered the horse to beat.
Kudos to Wonkette -- no slouch themselves when it comes to showcasing media absurdity -- for scooping RtE on that one.

RELATED: Regret the Error and Wonkette are both among the nominees for the 2007 Bloggies, now in its seventh year. RtE is up against the aforementioned Drawn! for Best Canadian Weblog; Wonkette is going for its third straight Best Weblog About Politics.
